MkDom2
By aggregator | September 22, 2011
MkDom2 is the program used routinely to build each new release of ProDom. The algorithm relies on the assumption that the shortest amino acid sequence corresponds to a single domain, and may be used as a query to screen the database with the psi-blast program, in order to cluster homologous domains. To build ProDom, we run this program on the UniProt (swissprot/trembl) Knowledge Database, but it can be run on any set of protein sequences in a fasta file.
Inputs:
- a file containing the sequences to analyse in fasta format
- psi-blast parameters. Default will be -j 10 -e 0.01 -h 0.01. If you want to change something please enter INTER= value to change -j option, E_EXPECT=value for -e option and H_EXPECT=value for -h option.
Outputs:
A perl script is available here to run this webservice from your computer. Please install SOAP Lite before.

Outputs:
- the log file
- the alignment file of the sequences in srs format
- the results of the analysis in xdom format
- the project file used to launch xdom faster
